Sailboat based on the dominican native canoes, designed for a friendly sailing but also keeping in mind the roleplay requeriments on most pirate estates in SL.
- No additional parts to wear.
- It is driven by the wind (it is based on the Flying Tako scripts by Kanker Greeacre).
- SPD compatible (4 hitpoints of structure strength).
- Iron angle is 35 degrees.
- Autodeletes 1 minute after sinking.
- Includes instructions, extra documentation about sailing in SL, gestures and HUD to use the comands.
Works Well
I like the canoe. It's easy to sail and the animations and feel is good. My only issues are that its not Modify so you can't change any colors and the sailing data is distracting because it covers your avatar. You can't change that or turn it off or have the data on the hud like a lot of other SPD ships are.
waste of money, put a demo to try before buy it!
The most frustrating sailing experience in Sl, this boat only looks fine, but the sailing system sucks, because the sailboat doesn't change either the sail angle pressing the up and down arrows (it only changes a value without any graphical feedback) nor the hovertext colour accordingly to other sailboat standards (blue, green, yellow, red) but it keeps itself only white or red. In this way the sailor has no idea of what he should do in order to set the right angle of the sail with the final result that the boat doesn't move at all or move so slowly you get completely frustrated after some minutes of driving. Besides that the extra documentation is totally unuseful and bad explained with wrong or partially explained commands (for example saying 'sheet 10' or 'sheet -10' does nothing). Generally it gave me the impression that there's no wind from all directions and there's no way to sail it fine. I'm totally unsatisfied of this buy.
